What microaggressions affect you and your group?
On another Q we were talking about calling Black people articulate.
I was trying to think of the negative stereotypes related to my groups (my groups are being a woman, Jewish, American, and even living in The Villages, but I can’t even believe I add that last one). How do I react? I was trying to put myself in their place. Is everything related to the stereotypes necessarily said with malice? I try not to be easily offended, and I usually say something.
Do you think we should speak up when someone says something that relates to a negative stereotype? Do you give them the benefit of the doubt that maybe they weren’t aware of the stereotype?
